    Anything is better than Cash Converters, this one's just a bit naff.

    But Hull FC has a Hull FC badge on it.

    I'd much rather have forgone a sponsor and had a local Charity on front - like Dove House as an example.

    It's all just swings and roundabouts.

    Like the kit release, some will eagerly wait to be dissapointed, no matter what's announced.

    Local, popular, relatively ethical. It's a far better sponsor than pawn broking ghouls and obscure betting companies.

    It's no Twydale Turkeys (!), but it's a step in the right direction. Well played City.

    It would probably be much more tolerable if the logo wasn't so ****e.

    It is better than Cash Converters though.

    The Daily Mirror just retweeted the City announcement and suggested it must be April 1st...

    There is something daft-sounding about it but I don't know why.

    The logo will probably be a huge, dominant, brightly-coloured stick-on thing, but still better than the Allam badge I suppose.

    Its one for the kids and family, its great to have a local Yorkshire attraction. The media should be praising the club.

    We can't be making much money out of this, Everytime I've been to flamingo land it was deserted and a bit run down.

    I'd rather have flamingo Land than gambling or money lenders

    I wouldn't. I bet you we're getting naff all from this. As unethical as the other companies were (well, cash converters anyway), at least their deals were worth a lot of money. I can't see flamingo land giving us anywhere near what the other two did.

    To be fair, it could've been Alton Towers... :bandit:

    Actually, that would've been miles better. The number of ****ups there suits the club well.

    We are not in the Premier League so it isn't rocket science to draw that conclusion.
